Florent Payet. pretty fast too, he finished in 25th . . . . . but he needs to work on that outfit. come on, look at that shoe/sock combo, what's that all about?
then tell rob jones to tone down the saturation...
It's racing not a fashion show. Roady clothes are disgustingly distastefully unessaccerilly awful but they're not going to get in his way at all. I ride with a few old timers that rip and they just wear nicks like that(but black),I'd do it if I wasn't as skinny as a rake. No chicks to pick up DHing,so what does it matter.
Please excuse me as I'm wound up from the latest fashion victom Aussie mag that just came out where everyones in their cool baggy pants looking like little school boys in clothes that serve no purpose at all and they're all getting brighter and lamer than all the loud bright gay roady stuff,and this mags hacking on lycra. FOX etc should be run outta town.Dressing these fools up like clowns.

lol my baggy shorts have yet to get in my way. they have acctually saved my ass (literaly), thighs, and well still look kool as **** while being very functional. now lets see lycra is stretchy, thin, and well not protective at all. you crash with baggies the protect and dont rip apart. you crash with lycra then you are all bleedy and nasty and then you are half naked. hmm ill stick to my baggies thank you very much.
you will wear the skin suit . . . you love the skin suitno skid marks said:
Yeah I wear loose fitting tough shorts myself but if that dudes racing and is ballsy enough not to worry about gravel rash or what the cool kids think of him then great good for him,stay outside the square dude your doing great(even if you do look weird). Sorry I do agree Lycra should have never been alowed to be soscially acceptable. I just think all this bright stuff everyone at races is wearing is nearly as bad. Fair enough if you're sponsored but why look like a clown if your not?
ready?

With a world cup # of 36, you can bet your ass he is fast as hell, as well as sponsored. That Yeti 303 was not paid for. However, he is a national team member, and is probably forced to wear his gear at world cups.no skid marks said:
if i was fast i'd wear purple spandex...
but i'm not so i'll stick with slacker clothes.

Sure he's fast, but he looks like a dork.Transcend said:
The skinsuit rule has got to go. It just doesnt make sence.
Same thing with the whole UCI "if you become a national champ you have to wear our jersey the whole year rule". For gods sake, Minnaar had to let his Nationals fly because he couldnt wear sponsors on the UCI jersey if he won.
What the hell is wrong with those people.
...and he still beat ex YETI pro rider, the first american rider on the results list - Duncan Riffle, who is without a doubt very stylish and "flashy" in his new gear, by 6 seconds! I don't really care if in he rides without socks or shoes - he's fast and that's what it counts in the end. Just think how nice it must be in the finish, when you kick some pousers ass!
If he doesn't have issues with what he wears...

pffft, you said that about the Hanson chick too...heikkihall said:
Florent Payet is a french rider from the Reunion Island who rides for FMF (french Yeti distributor). He is very fast .. (2nd junior at the Worlds in les Gets in 2004). Usualy he rides with a Fly race kit (MX style gears).
The french federation sometime help some young riders to go on the world cups when they deserve to race but don't have the budget to travel accross Europe, or simply don't have the structure of a big team (no mechanic, no one to take care of accomodations and everything ..). On the other hand, those riders must wear the national colors, the infamous french skinsuit... that's the deal.

So glad he decided to put those knee pads on in the event of a crash...they'll no doubt allow him to stand up unscathed and with the shaven legs any wounds would bandage up nicely.
Hey JP....if you're skimming this, doesn't this remind you of our favorite bad taste joke from the lift lines....

HA! I was thinking the same thing! I laughed like hell on that part on Earthed III...I would have added the following line, however:General Lee said:

I think were entitled to at least one...
you homo-phobe, trendies are too much. That dude could be wearing a tutu and flip flops and wouldn't be half as gay as anyone who cares what someone else is wearing.
That and the fact this guy would hand it to you on the mountain.

busted!
I wish I had a skinsuit. Those things are expensive though.
And they only last one crash.

Sounds just like a TLD helmet to me!Biscuit said:
